The Washington Open, known by its primary sponsor name, the Citi Open is part of the US Open series of hard court tournaments held in the summer ahead of the final Grand Slam of the season in New York.
It is one of thirteen ATP 500 events on the men's tour and usually also holds a women's event that is part of the WTA 250 circuit.
For 2021 the total prize money on offer at the Citi Open is $1,895,290, meaning it is the first tournament since the tour resumed after the corona hiatus to have 100% of the prize money on offer in 2019.
Despite the total figure being identical to two years ago, there are some slight changes in how the money is allocated. The champion in Washington will pick up a cheque for $350,755 which is -4.01% down compared to the amount Nick Kyrgios received when he won the title in 2019.
Most of the main draw rounds see a similar % drop but losers in qualifying buck the trend, for example, first-round qualifying losers get a 45.39% increase compared to 2019 with $1,970 prize money.
You can see a full breakdown of the 2021 Citi Open prize money in the table below. A percentage change is also provided to compare with last season.
